Hi all,

I was playing the other day and two of my teen Sims seem to kiss when saying goodbye even after only one successful romantic interaction. Is there a mod that ties these animations to relationship status rather than which interaction succeeded?

I am on Legacy.

Hi all, here is a brand new Tracker specifically for the Sims 2 that I made. It is all self contained in one HTML file and has persistence so all of your data is saved in your browser. I made this because I could not find a tracker that suited my needs online. I feel like this tool here has most of the basic functions I would need in a tracker. Let me know what you think and I can update it.

How To Use:

1. Download the .html file into a folder
2. Double click it to open it in your default browser.
3. Have fun!

Get it at my GDrive here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DZ9txR6RRyXdj9kUXdewFQdHjp8dyhHg/view?usp=sharing

Features:

• Tracker Dashboard - A dashboard displaying Hood Treasury and various Averages and counts!
• Hood Finances -
  • Manage your hood's treasury
  • Click buttons to simulate construction funding (if you want a realistic way to simulate "paying" to construct lots)
  • Track household taxes based on a custom equation that accounts for children, wages, owned businesses, and granular socioeconomic status (based on what you assign the family, not family funds).
    • This is a custom system for my game only, so you don't have to use it if you don't want to.
• Lot Management -
  • Assign lot types: Residential, Community, Apartment Complex (with support for mapping to up to 4 households), Greek Houses, and Dormitories
  • Add lot value
  • Set a business owner whose family is factored into tax calculations.
  • Add images via URL
• Household Management -
  • Household Play Mode - Have this up while playing to easily add event logs, household goals, and view your family tree.
• Sim Management -
  • Set sim names, genders, life stage, aspiration, life path (a general theme for what you want the sim's life to be), family assignment, career and wage tracking, personality, and markdown bio editing.
  • Diaries tied to each sim so you can track their thoughts and desires with date stamps.
• Neighborhood Chronicles - Publish formatted newspapers for your hood that report on indicated sims, families, or lots. Use these for random events you may be running (maybe in a future update?) or whatever you wish
• Add Custom App Background via URL!

Listened to Play Your Games on day one. I found it cringy and kind of screamy not in a way that I expected from Josh initially (my original comment for context), but I gave it a second listen today thinking "It was probably because I was stressed from work when I first listened" and am I glad I did. I heard the soul of the band's style when I listened for a second time. I know the camps have already be done to death, but this song was a reminder to me that this band is more alive than ever. Forgive me if that sounds ridiculous, but this song has really reignited my passion for them.

To make this post more original: Is the band's website always sold out of merch? I can't ever find anything of theirs available. My mother bought me a T-shirt from eBay for Christmas last year because there is never anything available.

Hi all,

Just thought I would share a quick reminder about Themed Days!

The Automod posts are just reminders! They aren't supposed to function like a megathread. So be sure that your posting your submissions as a new, separate post in the sub with the appropriate flair and not as a comment! This way, everyone can easily see your hard work and people are more likely to post! This will also make it easier to sort posts down the line.

I really hope to see everyone contribute!

Also, I am adjusting the "deadline" for Speedlang Sunday. We're going to extend Speedlang Sunday to a full week and change the name to Speedlang Sprint. With the Themed Week's Sunday (the original Speedlang Sunday) being the start and the Sunday of the Off Week (no other Themed Days) being the deadline. This will give us something to work on over the Off Week and will get us hyped for the Themed Days starting the Monday after.

Naturally, regular posting is still allowed during the Off Week. Feel free to share Speedlang progress reports using the flair if you wish during the off week!

Modmail with questions/concerns

Best wishes,

Býrngeþær ok Þornbran Örm! In honor of Þornsday, this post is an overview of my language, Bjornifjordalandic's, writing systems.

Bjornifjordalandic uses two primary alphabetic writing systems to write the language: Latin and the Greivangimar (Alphabet, lit. "Writing thing"). The Greivangimar system is largely used ceremonially and on official documentation such as legislation, court papers, and birth/marriage certificates. The Latin script is used everywhere else. Below is a link to a table showing the Latin, Greivangimar, and IPA values for each glyph:

Thank you very much! Have a wonderful Þornsday!

EDIT: Used a custom font so Greivangimar was not visible...link instead

Hi all,

I forgot, you forgot, we all forgot Biweekly Themes this week. So, to counteract that, we have enabled automated posts to mark each of the days and also the beginning and end of Speedlang Sunday (Random features are ready for that!). So, to test this system and kind of revamp the excitement around it. Biweekly themes will happen next week, go to an off week, and then back as normal.

Have fun conlanging!
